Mozart: The Piano Quartets

Mozart: The Piano Quartets

It takes just a few seconds of Mozart’s G minor Piano Quartet to recognise that these performers are engaged in a musical conversation infused with charm, wit and heartwarming generosity of spirit. Pianist Federico Colli’s breathtaking artistry, always alive to the contrasting emotions of Mozart’s music, is matched by exquisitely sensitive playing from his three companions. The ensemble’s profound feeling for the ebb and flow of musical ideas is enhanced by the individual brilliance of each of its members and their collective understanding of the composer’s expressive language and style. Listen, for example, to the dialogue that builds in intensity across the closing five minutes of the G minor work’s first movement or the rapt interplay between keyboard and strings in the “Larghetto” of the Piano Quartet in E flat. A perfect marriage of technique and deeply intuitive musicianship.
